Getting to know Manoush Castaneda

Hi there, I'm Manoush! Therapy is meant to be a safe space where you can express thoughts that emerge from various experiences as you navigate your life. I applaud your strength in beginning your journey as you seek to receive the support you need to address some of these challenges. Everyone deserves to feel heard and validated. Therapy is meant to guide you through that process, and I look forward to supporting you in taking the first steps towards self-exploration. My approach My therapeutic approach utilizes a combination of evidence-based practices tailored to fit your unique needs. I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques, allowing you to challenge negative thought patterns, replacing them with realistic ways of thinking to diminish negative symptoms. My approach is hands-on and adapts as needed, allowing you to feel in control of your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I focus on building practical skills and self-awareness, working as a team with you and your identified supports, to create lasting changes and a strong foundation for success, both in and outside the therapy space. I’m passionate about helping clients strengthen their emotional well-being and resilience, empowering them to navigate life’s challenges with greater self-awareness and independence, fostering a self-sufficient mindset and growth as clients move forward. My focus I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults who navigate symptoms of depression, trauma, and anxiety that may impact their ability to thrive to their full potential. The individuals I support seek to better understand and manage challenges related to self-esteem, life transitions, or past and present trauma. I also work with clients who experience behavioral challenges that affect their success in educational settings, as well as those with symptoms of ADHD, autism, and mild intellectual impairments. My approach is warm, collaborative
